Simulated in project SMARTNANOTOX

  1. General physics of the model equations:
    1. Model type and name:
      Molecular dynamics with self-adjusted bias (Metadynamics)
    2. Model entity:
      Atoms
    3. Model physics / chemictry equations PE’s:
      1. Equations:
        pe_type_atomistic_molecular_dynamics
        Newtons equation of motion
        V-rescale thermostat
        Bias potential for the surface separation distance, which is determined according to the well-tempered metadynamics equations
        The PMF is computed by integration of the average force acting on the solvent at the given distance from the surface
      2. Physical quantities for each equation:
        atoms coordinates; atom velocities; biased potential
    1. Materials relations:
      1. MR equations:
        Material is described by a user-specified force field
        Biomolecules are described by the GAFF
        Water is described by the TIP3P model
      2. Physical quantities / descriptors for each MR:
        atoms coordinates; atom velocities; biased potential
